Ustream isn’t the first live video streaming app for Android sets, as the previously mentioned Qik app hit the Android market a few months back. What Ustream claims to have over its competition is a system that limits lag and doesn’t let it “build up” over the course of a mobile broadcast. Streamers can also ask questions and post comments to their viewers via Ustream chat or Twitter. Ustream has a similar, but Wi-Fi-restricted, non-streaming iPhone app.
Ustream is a free download, available in the Android market. My G1 force-closed when trying to open the app, and Download Squad experienced similar problems, so if your own phone fails to launch Ustream, assume there’s a fixed version coming down the line.
